PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION
One guest house. One week. One slow-burn disaster waiting to happen.
Dean Whitaker has zero interest in weddings, fairy lights, or the perky woman currently turning his guest house into a scented-candle crime scene.
He’s a divorce attorney. He thrives on prenups, logic, and not getting glitter on his suits.
Poppy Monroe is a wedding planner with a checklist for everything—except how to survive living next door to a hot, brooding, tightly wound lawyer—aka the groom’s brother.
They’re opposites in every way—except for the undeniable chemistry neither of them wants to talk about.
Their mission: survive one week of wedding chaos.
Her vibe: sunshine and glitter pens.
His vibe: whiskey and restraint.
Opposites attract. Then they combust.

My Review
5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Grump Next Door was pure romantic comedy perfection! This is an opposites attract romance that was full of charm, sparks, bickering, snarky banter, a crazy goat named George, many laugh-out-loud moments, heartfelt emotion and a sizzling attraction that might melt your kindle. I couldn’t get enough.
This is Dean Whitaker and Poppy Monroe’s journey and what a wonderful, chaos filled journey it is!
Dean, a grumpy and emotionally guarded lawyer, has no interest in love, weddings, or happily-ever-afters, except when it comes to prenuptial agreements or divorces. However, he finds himself hosting his brother’s wedding at his own home, and then the wedding planner arrives.
Poppy, a wedding planner, always finds the silver lining in every situation. Her positive attitude, sunshine optimism, determination, and a meticulously crafted checklist enable her to bring her clients’ dream weddings to life. But she doesn’t have a checklist to survive the week with him and their undeniable chemistry!
“ Everything with you is complicated.“
I absolutely fell in love with this book. Poppy and Dean’s slow-burn chemistry is pure perfection, and I was rooting for them from the very beginning. The laugh-out-loud moments, the tension, the push and pull, and the longing had me giggling, sighing, and swooning for these two characters. With a perfect HEA!
I received an early copy and this is my honest review.
